Forty (Weeks) - Plus Club

[hummingbird125]

So while I think you're not medically "overdue" until it's more than 2 weeks past your EDD, I'd love to know who else is past their due date and still waiting for baby!

1) What was your EDD?
2) What's the plan? Is your OB letting you wait it out, do you have an induction or CS scheduled?
3) Any signs of imminent labor?
4) How are you coping? Are you content or going slowly insane?

ETA - changed the title 😂

1) What was your EDD? 8/4

2) What's the plan? Is your OB letting you wait it out, do you have an induction or CS scheduled? Induction is scheduled for Friday 8/12, OB said normally he'd wait until 42 weeks (I'll be 41+1 that day), but due to baby's size (estimated 8lbs 12oz on EDD), and that I'm at least a little bit dilated, he wants to do it then.

3) Any signs of imminent labor? I don't think so. I've been 1cm dilated for the past month, and as of Thursday was 70% effaced, but I don't feel any differently than I have all month. I do think I've lost most, or all, of my MP but know that doesn't mean much. While I haven't lost hope of going into labor, I just don't feel like my body is gearing up for anything!

4) How are you coping? Are you content or going slowly insane? Definitely not content, but my mood changes by the hour. I'm happy to have an end in sight, but I honestly don't see how I'm going to survive the next week without ripping my hair out. I am so bored, tired, and uncomfortable, and I'll be lonely when DH is at work next week (he worked from home most of this week).

hummingbird125, since I am AMA, having turned 39 last month, I thought your post was about women over 40 having babies.

1) What was your EDD? I thought it was 8/3, but apparently it's 8/1.
2) What's the plan? Is your OB letting you wait it out, do you have an induction or CS scheduled? We just scheduled an induction for 8/14
3) Any signs of imminent labor? Ha nope. Nothing is happening.
4) How are you coping? Are you content or going slowly insane? I'm mentally done, but life still has to happen. I'll be more annoyed at the end of next week.
